These appear to be the errors you go when trying to mount the
filesystems under your home directory, which is to be expected.

Mounting on /mnt/Windows and /mnt/Storage should be OK, as the file
context type for those directories should be mnt_t rather than
user_home_t.

Just to make sure, do (with /mnt/Windows and /mnt/Storage not mounted):

# chcon -t mnt_t /mnt /mnt/Windows /mnt/Storage

and then try booting again. If it still fails, look for new avc messages
in /var/log/messages.
